What parts of .NET require administrative priviliges to be executed?
- by Ruben Steins
Which parts of the framework require a user to be more than a Standard User? The reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to compile a list of possible issues with our existing applications when migrating to Windows 7.
Now, I can think of a few things myself:
Writing to Eventlog
Writing to Registry Keys outside of Current_User scope
Getting an Environment variable
etc...
I really would like a more complete list and so far I've not come across a decent resource in which all this stuff is listed.
Note that I'm not looking for ways of elevating the priviliges for the exsiting apps (which can be done by using a manifes), I'm simply idenitifying actions in code that might cause issues.
